Thank you to everyone that attended the Regulatory Sciences meeting. The slide deck is attached and a draft of the community scientific areas of focus. @HaiAn Zheng and I would love to know what you think. We have also some suggestions on programming and are looking for a Secretary, Scientific Area Focus Team Managers and members for Writing Programming Activity Teams. Get involved in the community and we will work together along with folks form other communities.
If you will be at NBC next week, there is a Regulatory Science, Pharmaceutical Quality, and Global Health Communities Event on Tuesday, May 12 from 8:00–9:00 AM PT in Pacific Jewel BC. I would connect with you if you are at the meeting.
Please add sessions and events at NBC that you are excited about in this thread!.
